Dear PJ student,
We are delighted that you have chosen the Clinical Department of Ophthalmology in our Clinical Department for the elective block of your practical year. We want to give you as many insights into ophthalmology as possible in 16 weeks. We will provide you with the necessary tools for this in the form of access to various IT systems as well as magnifying glasses for patient examinations on a deposit basis. Various stages on the ward, in the visual school, in our outpatient clinic and in the operating theater should give you as many different insights into this subject as possible. In detail this means
Our strengths:
- The field of ophthalmology is an optical subject with highly specialized diagnostics and treatment options. During your elective traineeship, you will learn to recognize and interpret different imaging systems and typical findings (optical coherence tomography, fluorescein angiography)
- All workstations are equipped with video systems. You can directly follow what is currently being examined. If you are being examined, you can be helped via the video system and certain findings can be explained directly. In the operating room, there is both a video system and a second microscope workstation where you can see the findings in three dimensions and assist with certain procedures.
- If possible, you will be supervised 1:1 by an assistant physician, especially in the first few weeks
- With increasing experience, you will have the opportunity to prepare patients independently
Collaboration in the team:
- Access to MHH-wide applications: SAP (physician role, activation for history), Alida access
- Access to the clinic's own applications: TimeElement, activation for the departmental drive
Materials provided by us:
-
Loupe set against deposit for direct and indirect funduscopy (two loupes for funduscopy: Volk Clearfield, Volk Superfield)
Rotations:
- Week 1 - 6: Ward - learning the basics of examination and accompanying ward rounds (with regular surgery days)
- Week 7 - 8: Vision school - learning the basics of orthoptic examination, strabologic surgery observation
- Week 7 - 16: Polyclinic - initially as an escort in the emergency room and later independent preparation of patients
Your PJ is currently remunerated with € 550. Our PJ supervisor Dr. Brockmann and her deputy Dr. Volkmann will be happy to answer any questions or problems you may have.
Dear students,
Welcome to the seminar/course and UaP in ophthalmology.
The current pandemic measures are forcing us to reorganize our teaching. However, we would like to offer you all a combination of face-to-face and online teaching. We have therefore divided you into small groups of a maximum of 6 students based on your group numbers.
Please prepare for the seminar using the ILIAS content for examinations/skills course. You can all freely join the Ophthalmology module in ILIAS.
Following the seminar, you will be assigned to our colleagues in the outpatient clinic and in the OR/block 3 as individuals for the UaP from 10 am to 1 pm.
In addition, you have the opportunity to book and attend individual UaP teaching units in the UAPP, also asynchronous to your course week. The APP is brand new, please be patient until we can create the events. Thank you very much!
We look forward to welcoming you personally to the Clinical Department during this time,
Your teaching team at the Eye Clinic.
